I built the lightest 914 in the history of mankind. Group: Members Posts: 120,944 Joined: 3-February 03 From: Jacksonville, FL Member No.: 222 Region Association: None |
The stock cast iron late model bar weighs in at 14 pounds. I made this one from 1" round tubing for the bottom section and 3/4" square tubing from the top section. And I added a 1" angle at the middle where the engine bolts to it.
This weighs 5 pounds!!! I saved 9 pounds!!! ( I'm pretty good at math) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif) Attached thumbnail(s) |

I think you mean "memory loss". (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif) You might say people who've never smelled dope on silk are missing something but it would probably be more accurate to say that those of us WHO HAVE are the ones "missing something" (ie. brain cells). If I added up all the bad stuff I've been exposed too (before I grew up and used my brain) I'd qualify as a walking superfund site. -Ben M. |
